About the project (provided by the applicant)
The Deep Sun Hotel is located in a secluded bay where the sky and the sea merge into one. It is a place where a fairy tale comes to life — where the sun itself descends to share its rays with the depths. Rising from the surface of the water is a deep bowl crowned with a huge glowing sphere, a symbol of the eternal sun. Inside the sphere are restaurants and public areas offering panoramic views of the endless sea. The smooth shape of the bowl and the structural framework combine aesthetics with functionality, concealing a system of passages and elevators within. It is not merely a bold architectural gesture but a well-thought-out system of communication and movement.
Descending through transparent corridors to the rooms at the bottom, guests find themselves in a realm of light and silence: sunlight refracts through the water, illuminating corals and fish just beyond the glass. This is an immersion into another reality, where one can observe marine life without leaving the comfort of a lounge chair. Deep Sun is not just a hotel but a portal into a dimension where the sun and the sea together evoke a sense of harmony and wonder.
